Research on the Efficiency and Influencing Factors of Fiscal Expenditure of Sports Public Services in China Based on DEA-Tobit Model
To explore the efficiency and existing problems of financial expenditure on sports public services in China,panel data of 31 provinces from 2013 to 2021 were selected,and efficiency evaluations were conducted using CCR,BCC,and Malmquist models.A Tobit model was constructed to analyze its influencing factors.The results show that the comprehensive efficiency of financial ex-penditure on sports public services is not high,with significant fluctuations.The scale efficiency is generally higher than pure tech-nical efficiency,and there is a heterogeneity characteristic of"central>western>eastern"among regions;Except for Jiangxi and Tibet,there is a phenomenon of redundant input and output;The total factor productivity fluctuates greatly in the early stage and tends to stabilize in the later stage;Among the external influencing factors,per capita GDP,population density,fiscal autonomy,and the proportion of sports management personnel are positively correlated with the financial efficiency of sports public services,which did not pass the significance test.The urbanization rate is negatively correlated and passed the significance test.Based on this,development suggestions such as accelerating financial and tax reform,improving transfer payments,accelerating supply side reform,and adhering to the new development concept are proposed to promote the high-quality development of sports public services.
